Re: [CentOS-virt] 4.9.34-29 EL6 and EL7 kernels
OK, thanks to Giuseppe's troubleshooting and help, I think we have gotten this iscsi issue fixed. There is now a new kernel-4.9.37-29.el7 (and el6) kernel in the testing repo. Please test this kernel and provide feedback so we can release it. The only change is to turn off: CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM (and of course the upgrade to 4.9.37).

Re: [CentOS-virt] 4.9.34-29 EL6 and EL7 kernels
Hi, I tried this new kernel on out xen testbed with centos 6 and iscsi over qlog 57810 is not working, tried replacing drivers from manufacturer but does not work either. tried 4.9.23 from repo and is not working finally the old 4.9.13-22.el6.x86_64 is the only one from 4.9.x taht is working with hw iscsi on this cards. I will be happy to help debug the issue and get a latest kernel working with iscsi . thanks, Giuseppe On 27/06/2017 16:40, Johnny Hughes wrote: OK Guys and Gals, We have just kicked off a build of the 4.9.34-29 xen kernel on the Community Build Service for both EL6 and EL7.

[CentOS-virt] 4.9.34-29 EL6 and EL7 kernels
OK Guys and Gals, We have just kicked off a build of the 4.9.34-29 xen kernel on the Community Build Service for both EL6 and EL7. This kernel has some important things in it. 1. It has a patch for the stack guard issue (CVE-2017-1000364). Also the patch for Xen Security fix XSA-216. See these upstream changelogs for ALL kernel commits from 4.9.31 to 4.9.34: https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/ChangeLog-4.9.32 https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/ChangeLog-4.9.33 https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/ChangeLog-4.9.34 2.
